I do not assume the characteristics they have been mentioned before. Mine has the distinction of having a handle 60 (ie the thinnest and I love it!).

It has mechanical gibson "luxury" (This is a 2011 model, wine red color.)

I was hooked as soon as I tried it. But I had been disappointed before trying some models, but then I fell in love!

The finish is good, although my luthier had to do a little editing (purely aesthetic) as the paint had jumped behind the neck 2 cm (hey at this price point, I must be the guitar nickel!)

The case comes with custom, this is the class!

I added strap locks because, well, would not break down!

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice, but i get used to the. I was playing on sleeves rather fine and i readjust a bit of me.

Small flat on access to acute. We can not say that it is really cut to shred, it is a little less easy to play on the last boxes.

The neck is super comfortable against. You can play longer without getting tired.

It is very pleasant to play, against the form of the body that I am more at ease standing than sitting, it is surely a matter of habit.

SOUNDS

I use the micro side easel rather solo in his light. Once you put an overdrive or distortion, it sounds really good! Sustain, presence, everything is there for me!

The sound is warm, round, I love the clear sound with the microphone in the neck position or intermediate. Corrections are effective.

To me, you get a good sound from that branch. An amplifier, reverb and it sounds really good. I think it sounds as good as its clear that its saturated, which is not necessarily the case for all guitars.

OVERALL OPINION

While some say "yeah, but good new models, this is not the same." born that neither my friend! I tried with handles logs 50, and I said "no, no no, it's not possible!"

I have not seen any difference in the depth of sound compared to older models. And I've tried many other models, sometimes much more expensive and also less expensive, and there I came across a studio that sounds good. I was even surprised to see that there are no obvious difference with the Paul standard in sound.

In conclusion, I have read a lot about the studio, but I think that above all, we must try to choose the right model, and especially to pay by a luthier.
J, did bring action orders. It is mounted on the 10/46. I play rock, funk and jazz, and it suits my style of play

The only thing a bit annoying is that it tends to detune a little too quickly for my taste.

You should also know, it is covered with cellulose varnish, so do not put it anywhere, I paid the price with a rubber stand that left marks. And it seems that some people have problems with the handle sticking time. So a carefully maintained.

10 being the best, I put a good 8 out of 10. It is a beautiful instrument.
I remake that choice without hesitation. For me it is a good value for money.
